Newsom Signs Bill to Track PFAS Pesticide Use in California
Original: Newsom Signs Bill to Identify, Track Use of PFAS Pesticides
California Governor Gavin Newsom has signed a bill requiring the state to identify and track the use of pesticides containing PFAS, the so-called forever chemicals linked to health and environmental concerns. The measure gives regulators new visibility into how widely these substances are applied in agriculture, adding California to the growing list of states taking action against PFAS contamination.
Why now: Governments are under mounting pressure to address PFAS contamination, and California's new law is a notable step in that effort.
